2. Hardware Installation
1. Connect the ADSL line.
Connect the line port of the router of the device to the modem interface of a
splitter using a telephone cable. Connect a telephone to the Phone interface
of the splitter using a telephone cable. Connect the Line interface of the
splitter to your existing, incoming line.
The splitter has three interfaces:
 Line: Connect to a wall phone jack (RJ-11 jack).
 Modem: Connect to the ADSL jack of the device.
 Phone: Connect to a telephone set.
2. Connect the router to your LAN network.
Connect the LAN interface of the router to your PC, hub or switch using an
Ethernet cable.
3. Connect the power adapter to the router.
Plug one end of the power adapter into a wall outlet and connect the other
end to the 12V interface of the device.
The following diagrams show how to correctly connect the router, PC,
splitter and the telephone sets under two different configurations:
Configuration 1
0 shows the correct connection of the router, PC, splitter and the telephone
sets, with no telephone set placed before the filter.
Figure 1 –Connection diagram
(Without connecting telephone sets before the filter)
9
Configuration 2
0 shows the correct connection when a telephone set is installed before the
filter.
Figure 2 - Connection diagram
(Connecting a telephone set before the filter)
Note:
When Configuration 2 is used, the filter must be installed close to the
telephone cable. Do not use the splitter to replace the filter.
Installing a telephone directly before the splitter may lead to failure of
connection between the device and the central office, or failure of Internet
access, or slow connection speed. If you really need to add a telephone set
before the splitter, you must add a micro filter before a telephone set. Do
not connect several telephones before the splitter or connect several
telephones with the micro filter.
4. Check the ADSL LED status.
Please check the ADSL LED on the front panel. This light indicates the status of
your ADSL broadband through your telephone line. If the light is on, you can
continue setup. However if the light is flashing, there is no broadband line
detected. Please call your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and inform them
about the flashing ADSL light to resolve the issue.
5. Firewall settings.
Please turn off all personal firewalls before you continue the setup – firewalls
can block communication between your PC and router.
Note: You must use the power adapter included in the package with the
router, do NOT attempt to use a third-party power adapter.

3. IP Address Setting
To use the router to access the Internet, the PCs in the network must have an
Ethernet adapter installed and be connected to the router either directly or
through a hub or switch. The TCP/IP protocol of each PC must be installed and
the IP Address of each PC has to be set in the same subnet as the router.
The router’s default IP Address is 192.168.2.1 and the subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. PCs can be configured to obtain IP Address automatically
through the DHCP Server of the router or a fixed IP Address in order to be in
the same subnet as the router. By default, the DHCP Server of the router is
enabled and will dispatch IP Address to PC from 192.168.2.100 to
192.168.2.199. It is strongly recommended to set obtaining IP address
automatically.
This section shows you how to configure your PC so that it can obtain an IP
address automatically for either Windows 95/98/Me, 2000 or NT operating
systems. For other operating systems (Macintosh, Sun, etc.), please follow the

Advanced
Choose Wireless > Advanced to display the following page. This page allows
you to configure the advanced features of the wireless LAN interface. Usually,
you do not need to change the settings in this page.
 Band: The radio frequency remains at 2.4GHz.
 Channel: Fill in the appropriate channel to correspond with your network
settings. All devices in your wireless network must use the same channel
in order to work correctly. This router supports auto channeling
functionality.
 Auto Channel Timer (min): Specifies the timer of auto channelling.
 802.11n/EWC: Select disable 802.11n or Auto.
 Bandwidth: Select the bandwidth for the network.
 802.11n Rate: Select the transmission rate for the network. The rate of
data transmission should be set depending on the speed of your wireless
network. You can select from a range of transmission speeds, or you can
select Auto to have the Router automatically use the fastest possible data
rate and enable the Auto-Fallback feature. Auto-Fallback will negotiate
the best possible connection speed between the Router and a wireless
client. The default value is Auto.
79
 802.11n Protection: The 802.11n standards provide a protection method
so 802.11b/g and 802.11n devices can co-exist in the same network
without “speaking” at the same time.
 Support 802.11n Client Only: Only stations that are configured in 802.11n
mode can associate.
 Multicast Rate: Select the multicast transmission rate for the network.
The rate of data transmission should be set depending on the speed of
your wireless network. You can select from a range of transmission speeds,
or you can select Auto to have the Router automatically use the fastest
possible data rate and enable the Auto-Fallback feature. Auto-Fallback
will negotiate the best possible connection speed between the Router
and a wireless client. The default value is Auto.
 Basic Rate: Select the basic transmission rate ability for the AP.
 Fragmentation Threshold: Packets that are larger than this threshold are
fragmented into multiple packets. Try to increase the fragmentation
threshold if you encounter high packet error rates. Do not set the
threshold too low, since this can result in reduced networking
performance.
 RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of
2347.Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor reductions
are recommended. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only
minor reduction of the default value, 2347, is recommended. If a network
packet is smaller than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS
mechanism will not be enabled. The Router sends Request to Send (RTS)
frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a
data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a
Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission.
The RTS Threshold value should remain at its default value of 2347.
 DTIM Interval: (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) Enter a value
between 1 and 255 for the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM.) A
DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to
broadcast and multicast messages.
 Beacon Interval: A beacon is a packet of information that is sent from a
connected device to all other devices where it announces its availability
and readiness. A beacon interval is a period of time (sent with the beacon)
before sending the beacon again. The beacon interval may be adjusted in
milliseconds (ms). Default (100) is recommended.
80
 XPress Technology: Select Enable or Disable. This is a special accelerating
technology for IEEE802.11g. The defaule is Disabled.
 Transmit Power: Adjust the transmission range here. This tool can be
helpful for security purposes if you wish to limit the transmission range.
Click Apply/Save to configure the advanced wireless options and make the
changes take effect.
